CNN & Vail Snowboard Tips: Boxes & Rails

[hornedfrog5]

lol ya, so safe...i got a concussion doin a simple 360 a couple weeks ago cause i caught an edge. it was a routine trick for me and i got a concussion!

[Zizou4mvp]

WTF? what tips did this guy give? to board on top of a stick and magically u will be able to do a 180 or 360 on a box? this is shit!

[arsenalgunners2]

@Inshredible. Depends on which way you're sliding. Both sides, land soft on the box, soft as you can, stay low with knees bent and loose. Front boardslide, get your weight a bit forward, toward the end of the box (actually, you want it centered, but it will feel like "forward" your body will want you to lean back). Back boardslide, stick out your butt in a 2/3 squat, emphasis on butt out. Doing this will help keep your centered and keep that board from kicking out from under you.

once your on the rail be sure to focus on the end of the box....???

[jakestar09]

SUCKS that i live in the UK....

[BodaciousBoarder]

thats a box not a rail hershberger

[GoddessMermaid02]

even if I only learned how to snowboard twice... This is my goal for Feb. I have mastered speed and turning.

[Inshredible]

I can boardslide on a rail but i cant land on the rail in the position to boardslide very good cause i slip out and bust ass sometimes? how do i not do its?

[GorillaTactics]

actually, riding over a stick is a perfect way for noobs to practice lining themselves up. Everybody's gotta start somewhere.

And yes, looking at the end of the rail/box is probably the most important thing to keeping your balance.

[TheNewBall]

haha hold on whilst i learn to ride over a stick so i can master a box people fuck i forgot that step now i cant boardslide anymore

[lucadepu]

butter on that box

[Larsok10]

this is the most retarded video

[xXstraybu11etsXx]

i had a hershberger at mcCdonalds today for lunch

[letsusesomepaint]

my grandad has a house in Vail and i go boarding every year there, best times of my life

[GrnPantsProductions]

i been snowboarding for over 8 years and from dumb ass reason i can't do rails. this vid helps a lot on boxes cuz it's like my kyponite

[iml337rofl]

then u have no chance of ever being good at riding park.

sorry but stick to riding the bunny hills

[GrnPantsProductions]

no what i meant was i never did park for a while cuz brundage doesn't have great parks just awesome free riding

[iml337rofl]

o well freeride is pretty cool lol i thought you have been trying for 8 years and cant get a box down lol

[steviewidess]

does that accually work? looking at the end of the rail. when i try to 50 50 the rail i cant stay on and when i try to boardslide a rail my board slips out from under me because im still leaning. which is easier to learn rails. 5050 or boardslide

[iml337rofl]

50 50.

if you cant balance with a 50 50 try it with more speed.

[cjwalsh7]

It is if you make it

[cheesebib]

can someone please make a video on how to ride a c-rail cause everytime i try i fall or slip off

[bobbykl6]

wow this actually kinda helps :)

[speedyspaz]

lol the only good thing in this vid is the board slide lol.... were i ski there is all park rats and dammmnet they r good. this one guy jumped a box landed on the next one backwards and 360'd off it... and yea it does leave u sore

[elquesokid15]
